Analog Compute-In-Memory (ACIM) using Non-Volatile Memory arrays can accelerate large language model (LLM) inference, combining large weight capacity with efficient compute and achieving energy and performance benefits. I will review IBM’s work on ACIM demos, addressing its unique device, circuit and architectural challenges and discussing future opportunities for LLM workloads.
This event is part of the Joint MIT AI Hardware Program and Microsystems Technology Laboratories Seminar Series.
